MEG Freeware Packages
There are many available; here are some; comments may be ignorant
SPM5
Advantages:
- Much experience at CBU, integrated with fMRI analysis
- Matlab, so readable and extendable
- Advanced statistical methods (e.g, for multiple comparisons across space or time),
- Novel variants of the L2-norm approach to the inverse problem
- Group-based analysis (eg in MNI/Talairach space).
Disadvantages:
- Slow graphics
- ECD currently limited
For more details, see here SpmAnalysis
MNE (Minimum Norm Estimates)
Advantages:
- Advanced distributed solution methods (mainly by Matti Hämäläinen, a long-standing expert with strong links to Neuromag)
- Excellent, fast graphics
- Linked with Free Surfer (advanced software for MRI segmentation, extraction of cortical surfaces, and inflation/normalisation)
http://imaging.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/imaging/FreesurferInformation
Disadvantages:
- Compiled code, so difficult to extend

Soon to be installed on Linux Boxes
FieldTrip
Advantages:
- Strong in oscillatory analysis (time-frequency, coherence) and beamformers (eg DICS)
- In Matlab, so easily readable and extendable
